Come On Over 05:30
I feel a sense of sadness I miss you, I miss your closeness I've tried to find comfort in the arms of others now I see, I am a fool I cannot rush into the arms of other lovers If you want me, here I am Come on Over If you need me, here I am Come on over I know our time is over But I feel it could not have happened better your lips, I'm glad I've tasted Our pain will pass, the time of love we had it was not wasted If you want me, here I am Come on Over If you need me, here I am Come on over Come on... If you want me, here I am Come on Over If you need me, here I am Come on over If you want me, If you want me Come on...

An Issue 04:23
Acid eats at the heart of the land The water of life burns away the soul The light creeps in and blinds the sight as oil turns black the blue of the sea And what am I supposed to do about that? A dark alleyway sees innocence molested A childhood lost to a tainted man's lust A life lived in fear of what might happen The woman in the dark cries out to be freed And what am I supposed to do about that? This is an issue that I understand Something to which I can lend a hand The problem seems to be at the heart of the man This is an issue that I understand Big boys toys turn the news into bad If it's not war it's cops and robbers What's so bad about peace that it can't be the answer The problem seems to be at the heart of the man This is an issue that I understand Something to which I can lend a hand The problem seems to be at the heart of the man This is an issue that I understand

Everyman 07:07
I am everyman I move to the common plan (repeat) My mind is a corridor It's straight, no rooms to enlighten me I walk its length, forever I see no end for me I never learn from anything that might stiffle the essence of me I don't ever question what I am cause I know I'm all I can be I can't take responsibility for anything I'm just a product of biology There's no point pointing a finger I'm just a product of society I am everyman I move to the common plan (repeat) I am me I am you I am everyone Someday

Beverley 07:46
He loves his woman gonna make her life brand new take her away from oppression show her what she could do He loved her daughter 13 and cute as pie he was gonna be her father yes he would, do or die She would leave her husband she has tried before in the past, with the fist forgotten she went back for more Now, with her lover's promise of a life free from fear she steps towards a new life but one hand pulls her back by the hair The lover feels his guilt like an itch he can't scratch She needed protection and he was at home I felt his pain, I felt like his son If anyone threatens, he will take them on 3am, sees a knock at the door angry words, the loser could not take being alone anymore he thought that he, would even the score 13 sees death bleeding on the floor
